This is a very good set of two hardcovers with dust jacket. 1983 and 1985 Houghton Mifflin Publishing. Both copies are very good inside and out. The pages inside are crisp and clean with no markings seen. The bindings are tight and straight on both. There is no foxing or tanning of pages inside, they are crisp and clean. Tan hardcover boards under jacket on both copies are very, very good with barely any wear. The accompanying dust jackets are very good. PLEASE NOTE: the jacket for Arnie the Darling Starling is clean and shiny with only light shelf wear including a scratch to jacket along spine but otherwise very good and the jackets for Arnie and a House Full of Company is a little more worn, still clean and mostly shiny but has wear to back left corner and top right spine area in the form of small tear. Crown octavo book size or 5" x 8" with 293 and 231 pages.
Arnie the Darling Starling and Arnie and a House Full of Company are true stories of a talking starling and the grandmother who raised him. When she came across Arnie he was a helpless baby bird. After trying to return him to a nest, she took him home and raised him. Arnie resisted all attempts to restore him to the wild and traditional starling favorites like worms frightened him. Most astonishing of all, Arnie learned to talk and sing.
Both Arnie the Darling Starling along with Arnie and a House Full of Company are sure to warm your heart.

Books are a bit yellowed - as to be expected given how old they are. But they arrived safely, packaged quite nicely. I greatly appreciate the seller's care for the books they sell.
